The Good King Charles!

I'm not a Royalist but just like organised religion I can see the value of such an institution.

Our world is a mess right now. Maybe some good old fashioned tradition is called for.

Camilla in her hat looked like an advert for Imperial Margarine.

That's good! Didn't think of that one, I was thinking she belonged on a "cake mix" box.... or a bottle of maple syrup. Something you'd see in Sunset Magazine in the 70's...

I heard Stevie sing this today and I laughed at the coincidence.

Rock on, ancient queen
Follow those who pale in your shadow
Rulers make bad lovers
You better put your kingdom up for sale
Up for sale

Don't like it, that's ok, as you can always follow the Kardashians


My thoughts too.

I'm a Royalist and loved every minute of it.

I'm pleased the camera didn't hover over that little prick Harry. Completely ignored him.

The Kardashians are one of the few real world things I rank lower, way way lower than the royal family.

I really do appreciate the 2,000+ history of the island's royalty. I loved the series Time Team. Real history presented as it was uncovered.

As a resident in a territory that is only opened to the white man in 1889 "old" has a very different scale. The oldest building in all of Oklahoma is Sequoyah's Cabin built in 1829.

Oklahoma City did not exist at all before April 22, 1889. So we know the exact date our city was founded. London was founded sometime between 1750 BC and 1285 BC, so they have a 465 year range to estimate the founding. Astonishing, 3,500 years ago.

If Prince William were to pass before becoming King, does "next in line" become Harry, William's kid, or Princess Kardashian?

I really don't keep up with this "stuff"

I think William's kid. But could be wrong (I'm hardly ever wrong).

I think Harry is out completely. But I could be wrong... Good thing GF is not here or she would give you the three hour abbreviated answer to your question.

Or if they runout of suitable people Princess Kardashian?
